Hi, Robins!For our next Challenge, you have a choice topics. Our Round Robin Photo Challenge for Saturday, December 1st is

Any heads or any tails will do! Show us doll heads or the tails on a tux, lettuce or the thing that stabilizes a kite, people in charge of a school or company or the obverse sides of coins, heads of nails or puppy dog tails. Any interpretation of either word works! Show us any heads or any tails you like - but let's not have heads AND tails in the same shot, please. I'd like to see a focus on one or more heads OR tails in any given image, but not both.Here's my usual reminder how all this works:You know how this works, right?

1. Grab your camera and photograph some heads, or tails, or both.

2. RSVP in the comments below with your name and the name and URL of the place you plan to post your photo(s).

3. On the Challenge date, Saturday, December 1st, post the results on any blog, social media site or online photo album. Don't forget to link back to here in your entry, so your readers can check out the other Robins' contributions.

4. Please visit the other Robins' entries, and comment if so moved. The list of entries will be posted at the bottom of this entry starting around midnight MST on the Challenge date, and updated through the day.

Hi, Robins! The next Challenge is a definite contrast to the one we just had, in which we were operating in the dark. Let's bring lots of light into this one. The topic for Saturday, November 17th is

Snow. Fluffy clouds. Bankers' boxes. Cotton balls. Powdered sugar. Our world is full of white things. But how white are they, really, and do they read as white in a photograph? If white is all we see, the image disappears, like a cow eating grass in the old joke, like a polar bear in a blizzard. The challenge, then, is to photograph something that is as close to white as nature allows, and still have it be visually interesting.

You know how this works, right?

1. Grab your camera and photograph something white.

2. RSVP in the comments below with your name and the name and URL of the place you plan to post your photo(s).

3. On the Challenge date, Saturday, November 17th, post the results on any blog, social media site or online photo album. Don't forget to link back to here in your entry, so your readers can check out the other Robins' contributions.
